Oma, I think you need to come to Minnesota and enjoy our fall weather–10 degrees, snow, wind, ice–and still weeks away from the official start of winter. I write out of envy. Thanks for the book report. If you require a nearly 800 page novel to keep you busy, Natchez Burning by Greg Iles will keep you going well into the early morning hours. Not to be missed. P.S. The photo pf Tillie pouting with Ned reminds me of your mother as a child when she couldn’t get her way. Love from Featherstone. Larry.
